An academically strict university with low fees and a high ranking.
Tips: No cultural shifts need adjusting, only the weather. I received a scholarship of 5000 pounds. The university was fine, but the infrastructure needs more development, and the country's transportation system could also use some improvement.
Likes (Indian Food): Leicester consists of a larger indian population, so a greater variety of food is available, even tiffin services. There are many restaurants like SKVP and Biryaniwala, which are cheaper compared to other restaurants in the UK. I mostly preferred to cook by myself. Indian students can prefer to go to Falcon Mall. Living with friends makes it easier to prepare food and get ready for university.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): Due to strict laws and updates in rules, it is difficult to get sponsored jobs. Experienced workers should take admission to university rather than as a fresher. I got my first job worth 25000, a GPA and a bonus every month. But, you need to go through higher competitions inside the company or to switch jobs as you are a UK experienced professional and get sponsorship. Then, the routes are open for permanent immigration. First, you can get a 3-year visa and then a 5-year Tier 2 visa, so you can apply for ILR.

The job market in the UK is really tough.
Tips: I have seen growth in myself in terms of communication, personality and being independent. I got a 3000 pounds scholarship in tuition fees, which I feel is really normal. I think most people get some amount of scholarship. I am satisfied with business analytics and strategic finance subjects. Other than that, everything was pretty much basic. Overall, Leicester is pretty much boring, so make sure you make friends to keep yourself sane. Everything looks good from the outside, but the struggle will start when you start living away from family.
Likes (Public transportation): The city is well-connected with buses. And there's a free bus service that takes a round trip in Leicester called the Hopp, which is helpful. Otherwise, bus charges are 2 pounds. Plus, everything is within walking distance, so you can just walk if you don't want to pay for transport.
Dislikes (Post study jobs): It is about the competition, and the job market in the UK is really tough. You have to stand out to have sponsorship jobs in terms of skills and knowledge. I would suggest upgrading your skills while doing your Master's to stand yourself. Find an internship when there's a holiday. The average salary is around 32000 pounds.

Multi diverse university and friendly and cooperative university.
Tips: Use any discounts that are available here. Book cheap airline tickets, get student discounts, download discount apps, and use voucher codes. Don’t bring too many winter clothes from home, it’s much better to buy them here because Indian jackets don’t cut it in the UK. Leicester is very diverse and there are a lot of Indian restaurants here where you can get good Indian food. You can find everything from South Indian dishes to Turkish food here. You can go out here without spending a lot of money, too. In the UK, there aren’t any specific arrangements in place for internships, like there are in India. Here, you have to apply externally yourself. There are some instances of companies advertising their roles on campus or at events, and networking can be useful, but most of the time, they say to apply online.

Life at University of Leicester is very vibrant and happening.
Tips: The University of Leicester offers strong academics, an affordable cost of living, and a diverse, student-friendly environment. The transition is smooth, although adapting to independent learning and British social norms does take time. Scholarships of up to 5,000 help to reduce tuition costs. Leicester offers adequate career prospects as visa challenges are there. The University of Leicester is an affordable place to study. You can get scholarships of up to 5,000 here. You can choose from affordable shared or ensuite accommodation, depending on your preferences. There’s also a strong brown community in the area, so you should have no problem finding food to eat. In fact, there’s loads of multicultural food available, which is great. There are restaurants around specializing in Indian cuisine and lots of places that sell traditional Maggi and samosas.
Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): It is difficult to get PR here. You have to work 5 years and your study year does not count. Also a lot of competition in white-collar jobs. I would personally not immigrate permanently as you may feel alone sometimes and also medical care is a little messed up.

Student life is great and there are many educational events that are engaging.
Tips: Students should do deep research before coming to the University of Leicester. They should make sure that they are selecting the correct accommodation for their stay. The faculty are very accessible and helpful. However, I think the faculty should have group discussions every week with all the students to find out if anyone is having any problems. Otherwise, all the staff is very knowledgeable and helps students. I am very satisfied with my University and would recommend it to anyone considering studying here.
Likes (Post study jobs): I feel like the student life at this university is very happening. There are many opportunities for students to help other people. The student body is very diverse, and I have met students from all ethnicities. The volunteers are very helpful.

Average college with strict rules.
Tips: The transition was super easy. It's mostly cloudy or night every day depending on the season. Consider this university only if you are serious about studying. All the assignments are on a level of a mini-project so it would not be easy. There are no part-time jobs at the university, so you'll have to find one in Leicester or elsewhere as it mostly depends on the season. If you start in January, it will be difficult to find a part-time job for at least five or six months. Even if you do find a job, it will likely be a short-term contract position that might not be renewed. The average salary for these positions is the minimum wage of 11.44 per hour.
Likes (Indian Food): You will get everything that you find in India for sure. We have Indian grocery stores over here but it is better to get from India in case it could be expensive if you don't have a part-time job, so get as much stuff as possible.
